as soon as i hear somebody is christian (or religous in general) i instantly lose faith in their intelligence. christians are fucking stupid.

Scientifically, it's more possible that there is other intelligent life in the universe (a.k.a. aliens) - see Drake's equation, than any of the Gods of earthly religions...

But if you say you think there are aliens, you are immediately frowned upon, whereas stating that a human-like God exists, which meddles with the forces of nature etc, you are a "regular" person.

It goes to show how much an average human being prefers to be lied upon, than use logic...

Oh and Ricky Gervais is a terrible guy. He is against people making fun of gays but he makes fun of people with down syndrome. This man makes me sick.

Do atheists believe in souls? Like what do they think happens when a person dies? Do they believe they are just dead, soul and all. I really like to know because well honestly all the atheist I know seem to be very mean. i'm sure not all atheists are like that but the ones I know are. It's like they must always call people names because they follow a religion. I never really understood that.

Religion is for retards. Period. Atheism is only the kindergarten of reason, though. I pity the fools who think secular humanism is the pinnacle of rational thought. There's so much more...

@orestisDisturbed Iv'e seen Christian apologists do the same thing. But the other way around. I think both are flawed.

[teejay89656]

@orestisDisturbed Oh its mathematically proven God probably doesnt exist? Thats funny. Especially due to how restricted human observation is and the capacity to retrieve all the variables needed for something like that.

[teejay89656]

So depressing. TT

@MrSkidzie SUCK MY peenioa

@SanguineBullet667 fine you win, i dont think either of us want to have this conversation

[FromTheHuts]

@SanguineBullet667 I'm not bothered to get into this whole discussion but speaking from what I call my non-biased view. Atheists will complain about people knocking on their doors to convert them but I know there are atheists who try to lead religious people away from their faith whatever it may be. So it's a poor argument that blunderCats is giving you. Converting or leading astray, similar concept is it not? After all your trying to change the person from whatever they believe in.

[SanguineBullet667]

@BlunderCats ever sat in a college class with one? they do it all the time. I've never had a christian come to my door, ever.
